UNAM Says Two Suspects Identified in False Bomb Threats as CDMX Opens More Inquiries

Prosecutors report 19 open investigations, with cyber‑forensic tracing underway across UNAM.

Overview

  • University officials said at least two presumed authors of the false threats were traced through digital messages and have been summoned to give testimony.
  • FGJCDMX detailed that 19 case files are active, with PDI and the city’s Cyber Police analyzing message origins and account traceability tied to the alerts.
  • Classes resumed at most sites earlier in the week (39 of 45), yet fresh warnings led to new preventive actions, including an evacuation at Preparatoria 8 and reviews at FES Zaragoza and FES Acatlán.
  • Federal and city authorities said all reviewed bomb reports have tested negative, and UNAM urged the community to rely on official channels and avoid sharing unverified messages.
  • Officials noted potential penalties under the Mexico City penal code, with threats punishable by roughly one to three years in prison while prosecutors assess additional charges.
